London Lives: exploring the nooks and crannies

No Change

There’s a new shopping centre on New Change, in the shadow of St Paul’s Cathedral. It’s nicely done, lots of glass and so on, with all the usual retail suspects there. My optician called the Brunswick Centre ‘Frocks and Food’ and he’d probably say the same about New Change.

The one intriguing thing to me is the jagged reflection of St Paul’s in the glass: Wren’s vision making its presence known.
